APPLE MUFFINS (VERY HEALTHY)



Apple Muffins (Very Healthy) image

This recipe is from the Liver Cleansing Diet by Dr Sandra Cabot. It is very healthy and tastes great. I don't add the sultanas because I don't like them and if I don't have almond oil or soy milk, I use canola oil and fat free milk and they still turn out great.

Time 17m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups wholemeal self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon mixed spice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup sultana
2 egg whites
2 tablespoons cold-pressed almond oil
1 cup chopped cooked apple
1 tablespoon honey or 1 tablespoon apple juice concentrate
1/2 cup soymilk

Steps:

  • Sift flour and spices and add sultanas.
  • Beat egg whites and add the oil, apple, honey and milk and blend thoroughly. Add to the dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly mixed.
  • Spoon into a lightly greased muffin tin and bake in a moderate oven for 17 minutes or until cooked.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. Granny Smith apples are a good choice for these muffins because they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that balances the sweetness of the muffins.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the muffins tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help to prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan.

Conclusion:

These very healthy apple muffins are a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. They are packed with whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and they are low in sugar and fat. They are also easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying breakfast or snack, try these very healthy apple muffins.
